Can I drive abroad?

Can I drive my Drive Fuze vehicle abroad?

Yes. Please contact the Customer Experience Team on 0330 1180947 at least three weeks before your travel dates so that we can organise the correct paperwork for you.

Amending a subscription

Can I add a second driver?

Yes. You can add one additional driver to your subscription for an additional £10 per month however they will need to go through our onboarding process and live at the same address as you.

Can I add additional miles if I need it?

All our subscriptions come with 1,000 miles as standard but we understand that some people may want more. You can select additional miles when you order your vehicle and it will then calculate the additional cost for this.

Why can’t I add drivers that don’t live with me?

Unfortunately, this is a stipulation of our insurance provider. The vehicle is insured by the primary or secondary driver, and the vehicle must beat the same premises.

Can I change my vehicle during my subscription?

Yes of course, that’s one of the great benefits of a Drive Fuze car subscription. For further information on how to do this please call our Customer Experience Team on 0330 118 0947.
